About Nellie

I believe t is important to take care of those who need or want help. Being a caregiver is a special job to me because each day that we interact with those we are helping is on more day they can enjoy a little more. I find it important to take time to make family days simpler and less stressful for those involved. Sometimes you just need someone willing to help. I am very patient and understanding and wanting to help.

    When I first became a caregiver I saw it as a opportunity to make money, but as I started to meet all of the patient and see how fun it was to take care of them and get to know them it became a joy to get up and go to work everyday. I like getting to know people and their family from all walks of life everybody got different preference due to their backgrounds it a challenge. I am proud when I leave each patient with a clean body, mind and sole that make my day. I have been doing home healthcare on and off for over 25 years. I enjoy what I do when I 'm doing it. I have taken breaks from it due to putting my all into it and getting burn out from time to time but I always come back to it because it what I like to do. I am experience in taken vital, transferring patient, giving bed baths and meal planning.

    i try to listen to my patient individual needs and try to make sure I accomplish what they need every time I come. I try to make sure my patients are getting there physical needs as well as there mental and spiritual needs met. I also like to make sure things are put back where I got them for example there toothbrush or toothpaste or what ever I use to help take care of the pt so they can find it. I also like to make sure we try to have fun play a card game go for awalk what ever they like to do. I try to make sure they are an important person and call them by what ever name they want. I try to encourage them to do much on there own but assist when necessary. I like to work with seniors because you can learn new things about there history and culture when they grow up. They have so much wisdom to share. I also like to celebrate when they do something for the first time that they have not done for a long time.
